Political Hotspot

Welcome to the tenth edition of Political Hotspot.



Huey Geaorge, leader of the Workers Rights Party, has won the presidential election, beating the second place candidate, Ser Fartsalot, by 14 votes.

Party membership has fallen significantly since the last edition of Political Hotspot, with all five main parties seeing a fall or no change in their numbers. Many are predicting the death of eRepublik, although I can't see the 'core' of committed players leaving the game any time soon. The generally falling party membership numbers do, however, represent a worryingly consistent fall in the population of the eWorld.

The United Kingdom is currently under the rule of Dictator Adastros, so the new President may have little influence.

The next edition of Political Hotspot should be published on Monday 16th March 2015.
